Is the item digitized? (A thumbnail (small) image will
be visible on the left.)

Family, cat reunite after 4 years
Published: Monday, November 1, 2004 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, October 31, 2004 at 9:36 p.m.
After a four-year separation, the Cox family was recently reunited with their cat Fidget.
Navy Chief Petty Officer Brandon Cox and his wife, Amy, left four years ago for the Pearl Harbor Naval Base in Hawaii and could not take their cat with them. They left Fidget with family members, who eventually gave the big, black ball of fur to Velma Denton of Hendersonville.
Denton was known throughout the county as a person who loved cats. She could not turn a cat in need away. People would drive by the house, leaving cats and kittens in her yard.
A few weeks ago, she entered a nursing home. She no longer is physically able to care for the cats, which numbered more than 50.
"My sister told me about the cats and to check out the Times-News Web site," Amy Cox said. "There were two cats that looked like him. I e-mailed the people caring for the cats and asked if they still had Fidget."
Fidget was renamed Fudge and at the house.
"I was so happy to hear he was still here," Cox said. "He let me hold him. He was just purring."
The couple adopted Fidget when he was 5 weeks old at the Camp Lejeune Marine Corps Base, where Brandon Cox was stationed more than five years ago.
"He was my baby," Cox said. "He let me give him baths and I spoiled him. He was the only thing I had to spoil. When I had to leave him, it felt like leaving family. I cried and cried."
Brandon Cox, a 1991 Rosman High School graduate, was transferred to Hawaii when Fidget was about 1 year old.
"It would have cost more than $1,000 to ship him with us," Amy Cox said. "He would have to be in quarantine six to eight weeks. We just couldn't do it financially."
Brandon Cox is currently based at the Naval base in Mayport, Fla., assigned as a torpedo man to the frigate USS Samuel B. Roberts. Amy and Kyra are living in East Flat Rock. They are on the list for base housing, which is a four- to six-month wait, Amy said.
Fidget is now 51/2 years old and making friends with 2-year-old Kyra and a 3-month-old cat named Gidget.
"It was only difficult for the first few days," Amy Cox said. "After three or four days, they were all getting along just fine.
"I bought him a new black collar with stones that look like rhinestones," she said. "I got him a new bag carrier and a cushion. He's king of the house here and he makes it known. This is his throne."
Cox said Fidget seemed to recognize her voice when the family arrived at Denton's home to get him.
"I picked him right up and gave him a hug," she said. "He let me carry him around and licked my face and was purring the whole time.
"I just couldn't believe it," she said. "I thought he wouldn't remember me."
There are still about a dozen cats at Denton's that need homes. All the cats have been spayed and neutered. They are clean, healthy and affectionate. They only need booster shots as they come due. If interested in adopting a cat or helping Denton's friends, call 891-7780 or 891-7275. To view photographs of the cats, visit www.pbase.com/isabel95/catsforadoption.

New Styles
Genetic Denim James Capri in Floral
Genetic Denim has released a pair of jeans with Barneys New York; the James Capri in Floral. These are a very fresh take on the trend for Spring as they combine greens and yellow with a hint of blue.
Usually the floral jeans that I see around are always in the pink and purple tones, so it's nice to see a pair without that in. What do you think of them? They are available for purchase on the Barneys website for $232.
New Leopard Leather Pants by Joe's Jeans
Joe's Jeans is next to release their leather pants in a print for the new season. For their version on the trend, they combined two of the biggest trends, leather with leopard. To keep the pair wearable, Joe's muted the colors to dark brown tones.
By keeping the colors darker, I find that they can easily be styled. You can pair them with any piece that you would pair a regular pair of leopard jeans with. You can choose to style them with a t shirt and blazer or a muscle shirt and ankle boots. How would you wear these? You can click here to purchase these pants from Joe's website for $795.
Holiday Styles for Men by J Brand
J Brand has also released some new styles for the holiday for the men as well. One thing J Brand is known for is reinventing the classics. This time it is for the men and in their Kane fit. They released them in a new black that has purple undertones and a navy with teal undertones.
They are also known to play with subtlety and that is what they did with their new Tyler in Union Blue. It is a plaid print in a muted navy and midnight blue. All styles are perfect for every man, whether it be for one that is looking to push their boundaries some more with their style or someone that loves being bold. They are definitely jeans that are in between both ends of the spectrum. You can click here to purchase all these styles from J Brand.

The fast-paced workouts rely on stationary rowing machines, which by turns replicate the sensation of paddling down a river of choppy water or thick banana pudding, a sensation enhanced by the views of the water just outside the class window.

I've been thinking about it for some time now. SInce I don't really get anny commissions or find work in an actual studio.I was thinking I can create a patreon page. That seems to work for alot of artist around here. The idea does have potential for me to sustain myself trough my art and naturally focus more on it and produce more AND better work.
So TL;DR If I make a Patreon would there be people who would support me on there,
I'll do more research on how to build the page later tommorow.In terms of like what sort of reward things are appropriate and such.

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, January 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
Experts will examine factors enabling competitiveness of nations and businesses when international and Saudi experts gather at an elite forum in Riyadh under the theme 'Building Competitive Partnerships'.
With speakers including Saudi government ministers, international business leaders and academics, the Global Competitiveness Forum (GCF) at the Four Seasons Hotel in Riyadh from January 18-20 will discuss global and regional trends in business competitiveness and developing a world class infrastructure in Saudi Arabia.
For the first time since its inception in 2006, the GCF will also include the 'Invest in Saudi' exhibition which will both showcase investment opportunities in the Kingdom and provide an ideal networking platform for participants.
Among the panels and workshops in the three day event, the following will be discussed:

HE Mohammed Al-Jasser, Minister of Economy & Planning will lead the discussion of global competitiveness and setting the stage for building a partnership framework in Saudi Arabia, in a session moderated by BBC journalist Nik Gowing. Also on the panel will be Hans-Paul Bürkner, Chairman of Boston Consulting Group; Professor Dong-Sung Cho from Seoul National University; and Philip Yeo, chairman of SPRING, the Singapore governmental agency responsible for innovation and growth.
Fostering Entrepreneurship - Catalyzing Innovation
Nik Gowing will also chair this session focused on boosting entrepreneurship, problem solving, and creating a positive environment for entrepreneurs, contributors will include Daniel Isenburg, an expert in entrepreneurship; and Dr Jean-Lou Chameau, President of King Abdullah University of Science & Technology (KAUST).

This panel discussion encourages and empowers women to play an active role in Saudi Arabia's economic development, with Rafiza Ghazali, Chief Financial Officer at Cagamas Berhad; and Thurayya Obaid, member of the Shoura Council and former UN Under-Secretary-General.
Employability - Synergizing Job Creation and Education
HE Eng Adel Fakieh, the Minister of Labor, heads an expert panel discussing the links between Saudi's education system and the job market, asking whether the Kingdom's universities deliver the right type of graduates and examining the role that vocational training plays in developing human capital, among other employment-related issues.
Founded in 2006 by the Saudi Arabian General Investment Authority (SAGIA), the GCF has grown into one of the largest and most important annual gatherings of academics, business leaders, politicians and journalists in the region.

Blythin Leggett, LMT Receives the 2016 Performance Health FSMTA Humanitarian Award
Leggett was presented with the prestigious award for her work with military veterans at the Florida State Massage Therapy Association's Annual Convention
Blythin Leggett, LMT was presented the Performance Health FSMTA Humanitarian Award at this year's Florida State Massage Therapy Association's Convention and Trade Show. Performance Health, manufacturer and marketer of Bon Vital', Biofreeze, Prossage, TheraBand, Cramer and Thera°Pearl health and wellness products, honors individuals annually in the massage therapy industry for their efforts in improving the welfare of their clients and demonstrating selfless devotion to others. This is the fourteenth year Performance Health and the FSMTA have presented this award.
"We are once again grateful for the opportunity to partner with the FSMTA to honor someone who quietly gives back so much to others," stated Marshall Dahneke, President, Performance Health. "I love the heart of this profession and of its practitioners, and selecting just one person to honor among so many worthy choices is never easy. However, Blythin is another 'poster child' of generosity through her work with our military veterans.
"Blythin cares for and supports the needs of veterans by donating her time and expertise at MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa, FL and Quantico, VA. She also provides monthly volunteer support for an award-winning warrior-athlete who is paraplegic as a result of his sacrifice for us, and who is now a world-class jet ski competitor. She supports him and his team as well as other competing warrior-athletes, encouraging and enabling them to compete at their best. It is truly an honor to present Blythin with the 2016 Performance Health FSMTA Humanitarian Award," concluded Mr. Dahneke.
Blythin Leggett is a life-long learner with a long list of degrees and certifications ranging from museum art education to personal training. She is a Licensed Massage Therapist in Florida, a member of the FSMTA and has served on the FSMTA Sports Team since 2009.
In addition to honoring Ms. Leggett at the FSMTA convention, Performance Health will donate $1,000 to Special Operations Bionic Warriors.
"I am surprised, honored, humbled and absolutely full of gratitude to be the recipient of the 2016 Performance Health/FSMTA Humanitarian award. I am so fortunate to love my work as much as the people I serve," Ms. Leggett said. "Although these special operations athletes are physically and emotionally reminded of their sacrifice 24/7, they regain awareness of their self-worth through building supportive relationships and are empowered by their challenge. I believe the Special Operations Bionic
Warriors organization provides the strongest correlation with my mission, and I am pleased to have my award appropriated to them."

Announcing the 2015 launch of the scholarship program, Howard Murad, M.D. FAAD stated, "An integral part of my inclusive health approach to health and wellness is esthetics.

The emphasis of this year's conference - which included more than 40 different presentations, activities and skill workshops - was the importance of sparking new ideas and forging an exciting path to the future through education, innovation and technology. The corporate offices were filled with excitement and passion as educators and distributors from around the world gathered to re-ignite relationships and learn new skin care techniques, enhance their training skills, and learn of new brand concepts. The week began with a welcome breakfast to give attendees the chance to build new relationships and rekindle old ones. Program host, Annet King, Senior Director of Global Education for Dermalogica and The International Dermal Institute, kicked off the week with an enthusiastic presentation on the theme for this year's conference: Spark! Ignite Ideas, Design the Future. Annet introduced the idea of "spark tanks" or engaging brainstorming sessions where attendees worked together to produce flames for the future. Attendees also heard from Jane Wurwand, Co-Founder and Chief Visionary of Dermalogica, The International Dermal Institute and FITE, who spoke about finding ones purpose in life and sharing it with others. Her powerful presentation left participants thinking "what can they bring to the event". She then introduced the company's new CEO, Aurelian Lis. Lis presented on the direction and focus for Dermalogica for 2016 and beyond. He stressed the importance of social media and urged all to engage in the initiative. Lis also spoke about how critical human touch is to the Dermalogica brand.
Other top highlights from the week included presentations by Mathew Divaris, VP of Global Marketing and Creative for Dermalogica, who shared the Dermalogica brand key with the guests and talked about strategies to reach new consumers. Dr. Diana Howard, VP of Research and Development for Dermalogica and The International Dermal Institute, introduced upcoming new products for the brand, including the newly reformulated Age Reversal Eye Complex, and presented on the science behind the innovations. This upgrade makes Age Reversal Eye Complex tougher on fine lines and easier on the eyes as it now uses special microencapsulation technology to help ensure that the highly-active ingredients inside remain stable, maintain their concentration levels and have controlled-release delivery to penetrate deep into skin layers. Attendees learned Dermalogica's new application face method which will be released along with the next product launch on September 1 at 10:00am. Senior instructors also received a hands-on refresher on IonActive Power Treatment and learned new ways to re-invent education to ensure Dermalogica's skin therapists worldwide are up-to-date and continue offering their best skills, techniques and treatments to their customers.

Beauty Inside and Out: An Interview with Makeup Artist Eva DeVirgilis
The award-winning actress and makeup artist talks industry success, client relationships, and why you should never over-apologize.
Award-winning actress and makeup artist Eva DeVirgilis will be the keynote speaker for this year's Face & Body Northern California, an annual conference and expo held exclusively for skincare, spa and wellness professionals. DeVirgilis' keynote presentation - titled, "In My Chair: Makeup Chair Conversations" - will bring conversations with clients to life and will highlight the role that wellness professionals play in encouraging clients to feel confident and beautiful.
Below, DeVirgilis dishes on the importance of loving yourself inside and out, plus her tips for finding success and providing meaningful interactions with your clients.
Tell us a little bit about your mission to end apology in all women.
If you are in the beauty industry then you experience clients apologizing for the way they look the second they see you. "I'm sorry, I know I look like crap," or "I'm sorry, my roots are horrifying," or "Sorry, I have less hair on one eyebrow." But it's not only on the job, the apology has become the new "Hello" among women. I did it for a long time too! So I enacted a "No Apology Rule" for myself and clients. Now, my clients catch themselves doing it, they laugh and say "I never realized how often I apologized!" It's just about breaking the habit.
Do you have any tips on how to take a compliment and be less critical of yourself?
Just. Say. Thank you. Then close your beautiful lips and smile. It takes vulnerability and a little bit of bravery for another person to give you a compliment, so honor their risk and kindness by just saying thank you, and refrain from saying that you didn't sleep last night, or how cheap your shirt is, or how much weight you've gained. If you absolutely must keep speaking, then pay it forward by giving them a compliment right back.
How can beauty/salon/spa professionals be more memorable with their clients?
Treat them like they are the only person on your schedule that day.
How can professionals be better speakers in front of a master class, group, or convention?
1. Hook 'em! Before you even introduce yourself, the first thing out of your mouth should be something surprising, personal, or funny. Preferably all 3 at the same time. Plenty of time to give them your name later. If you hook them right off the bat then they'll be begging for your name, and your product!
2. Make them FEEL something! "People won't remember what you say but they will always remember how you made them feel." Personal stories are best when bringing home any point. I'm a big fan of the book, Keep it Short and Simple by Dr. Aaron Anderson and David Leong to help with public speaking.
3. Call them to action. Tell them exactly what you want them to do with enthusiasm so it will inspire them to leap out of their seat and go forth and do it.
You have made some incredible leaps in your career. Tell us about your "mess to success" story.
You have no idea where life will take you… A few years ago I called off a wedding and left New York City with just a suitcase in hand. I was a despondent mess after years of hard work. I started my life over in Richmond, VA. I took a full-time job behind a makeup counter at Saks Fifth Ave to pay the bills, which turned out to be the best thing I could have done, because it connected me with their customers who are some of the most successful movers and shakers in the area. You never know who your clients are, so treat them all like they are the most important person in the room. One customer turned out to be a coordinator for TEDx and asked me to pitch a talk about being a makeup artist. I got the gig. Two years later, almost a half million people have seen my talk, In My Chair. I had to leave the makeup counter; I get to go all over the country speaking about the beauty in all of us. The Business School of a major University asked me to teach a public speaking course, (never dreamed that was in the plan), women from all over the world reach out to me and share their story, and I am happy to say I am engaged to an incredible man who loves and supports me endlessly. When I look back and ask myself, "How did this all happen? What made the difference?" I realize that I completely invested in myself - I listened to my gut and ended a relationship that was forcing me to compromise who I was. I got lots of fabulous therapy and read a gazillion self-help books (every human should read You are a Badass by Jen Sincero); I hired a coach to help me reach my goals. It was a lot of hard work but preparation met opportunity and when that one person took a chance on me, I was ready.
Lastly, what are the beauty/makeup products that you can't live without?
- Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer for SPF and light coverage on a hot day.
- Giorgio Armani Master Corrector #2 and High Precision Retouch Concealer. It's great for gals like me who have darker under eyes due to genetics. This stuff does not crease despite me piling it on.
- Elf HD Powder. For 6 bucks this stuff does an amazing job, and you get more than a thimble-full, unlike some other brands.
- Giorgio Armani Lasting Silk and Luminous Silk Foundation. It looks perfect on the entire color spectrum of women on the planet earth.

Five for Fighting's John Ondrasik to Receive ISPA's Humanitarian Award
Grammy nominated artist John Ondrasik will recieve the ISPA Alex Szekely Humanitarian Award at the 26th annual ISPA Conference & Expo.
The International SPA Association (ISPA) will present John Ondrasik with the 2016 ISPA Alex Szekely Humanitarian Award at the 26th annual ISPA Conference & Expo in Las Vegas. Ondrasik, a Grammy-nominated artist, will also serve as keynote speaker on Sept. 14 with a musical performance.
"John delivers such heartfelt music every time he performs. ISPA loves celebrating those who use their talents to help others. He is the perfect representation of someone that has taken the talents given to him and used them for good," said ISPA President Lynne McNees.
Singer-songwriter Ondrasik, known by his stage name Five for Fighting, exploded onto the music scene with the release of "Superman" in 2000. "Superman" continued to embed itself in the nation's consciousness with the events of 9/11, as Ondrasik joined other superstar musicians for the fundraiser, "The Concert for New York," a 2001 event dedicated to first responders affected by the events of September 11th. Three years later, Ondrasik landed another number one Billboard hit with "100 Years."
"Personally, giving back through charity work has been the most selfish exercise of my life, as I meet such wonderful and inspiring people," Ondrasik explained. "Whether it's the CD for the Troops project or my work with Augie Nieto and ALS, I am continually in awe at the courage and strength of the human spirit."
The Humanitarian Award is named in honor of the late spa pioneer, Alex Szekely. It is designed to recognize an individual who acts as a respected contributor to overall well-being, encouraging the renewal of mind, body and spirit - all of which are characteristics embodied by ISPA members worldwide. The award will be presented to Ondrasik by Szekely's mother, Deborah Szekely.
Past Humanitarian Award recipients include Alice Waters, Jewel, Blake Mycoskie, Lisa Ling and Dr. Maya Angelou. More information about attending the 2016 ISPA Conference & Expo can be found at attendISPA.com.
BioPhotas, Inc. Announces Attainment of ISO 13485:2003 Certification
The company has received certification for the design, manufacture and distribution of Low-Level Light Therapy devices.
BioPhotas, Inc. recently announced that the company has attained ISO 13485:2003 Certification for the design, manufacture and distribution of Low-Level Light Therapy devices. ISO 13485 is an International Quality System Standard for Medical Devices. Attaining such a certification is the hallmark of a global medical device manufacturer.
Commenting on the certification, Patrick Johnson, President & Chief Executive Officer of BioPhotas commented, "Receiving ISO certification is a major milestone in the company's evolution and serves to distinguish us from other manufacturers of light energy devices, who do not hold themselves to such high standards. We are proud that our products are "made in the USA" and that we are contributing to the local economy, building the company here in Orange County."
In related news, BioPhotas also announced that its products, the Celluma PRO and Celluma LITE, have received CE Mark Certification, allowing the product to be sold in the European Union as a medical device. In addition to marketing the Celluma for sale in the EU for all of its current FDA clearances, the Celluma has also been CE-marked as a Dermal Wound Healing device. The Celluma is FDA-cleared for seven separate indications-for-use, including the treatment of acne, muscle and joint pain, muscle and joint stiffness, muscle spasm, arthritis, compromised local blood circulation and facial wrinkles, all in a single product configuration.
Further commenting on the news, Mr. Johnson noted, "From the beginning of its development, we recognized the Celluma's potential as an effective wound healing device. Accordingly, much of our original clinical research has been in the area of wound healing. In published and peer-reviewed research conducted at the prestigious Beckman Laser Institute at the University of California, Irvine, the Celluma was shown to dramatically accelerate the rate of wound closure. Our intention is for the Celluma to be the first LED panel device to be FDA-cleared for a wound healing indication-for-use."
BioPhotas plans to start shipping the Celluma to EU nations early in the 3rd quarter of this year.
The Celluma PRO and LITE are now CE-marked under the European Medical Device Directive (93/42/EEC), under Annex II, Full Quality Assurance. The Celluma is Class IIa, per Annex IX, Rule 9.

Judge Dredd (role-playing game)
|Lawrence Whitaker
|Mongoose Publishing
|Publication date
|Science fiction
Judge Dredd has been the inspiration for three role-playing game systems. These games are based on the fictional world of the Judge Dredd series from the British comic 2000AD. The first, Judge Dredd: The Role-Playing Game, was published under license by Games Workshop in the 1980s and used a rules system created specifically for the game, which resembled GW's Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay.
In 2002, Mongoose Publishing acquired the rights to publish games set in the worlds created by 2000AD, and they quickly released Sláine and Judge Dredd role-playing games, which used the d20 rules system. A total of 14 supplements were released for the Judge Dredd d20 RPG, in addition to support in their in-house magazine, Signs & Portents. In 2009, Mongoose Publishing released a new version of Judge Dredd, using their Traveller rules set.
The role-playing games are unrelated to each other except for the setting.

River levels- new link
Due to the environment agency updating their website, the webcam page which normally looks at the Viking recorder and tells you how many steps are showing is currently not accurate.
While we sort this out, you can access the correct data here
Club Cleanup
Now the waters have gone down, the task of cleaning up will begin on Sunday 3rd Jan at 9am
Bacon sandwiches for volunteers!
It's obviously been an eventful week in York over Christmas. Compared to many private properties who suffered significant flooding, we have little to complain about really. Both boathouses flooded with the main site around a metre deep in the boat bays. Thanks to prompt action on Boxing Day, all boats are safe.
The club will reopen for business as soon as possible and members will be contacted regarding the cleanup event.

Oregon Freeze Dry Highlighted Using SPC Software in an Article in Packaging Digest
Oregon Freeze Dry was highlighted in Packaging Digest for using the Synergy 2000 Statistical Process Control (SPC) software to enhance their operations.
In the article Tim Stutzman, Manufacturing Systems Analyst for Oregon Freeze Dry, explains why they selected the Synergy SPC software.
"Oregon Freeze Dry decided to implement Synergy as a tool that would empower its operators to proactively manage the process. Stutzman says, 'We needed a tool for operators so that they would know whether or not they were in-control. Prior to Synergy, operators had no real-time way to tell whether or not their step in the process was in control.'"
See below for full story.
